  • Summary

  • Today’s Headlines: Israel has officially launched a ground invasion into Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah's tunnel network along the border. Strikes have reached Beirut, forcing about 1 million people to flee their homes. Meanwhile, the U.S. is sending an additional 2,000–3,000 troops to the region. In a twist, one of the top Hamas commanders killed in Lebanon turned out to be a suspended UNRWA employee, sparking further investigations into the UN agency. In Georgia, a judge just struck down the state’s 6-week abortion ban, and in Rockdale County, people are being evacuated after a chemical plant fire released chlorine into the air. Over in California, Governor Newsom vetoed a first-of-its-kind AI safety bill but approved a law banning certain artificial dyes in school meals. And tonight, get ready for the vice presidential debate between Tim Walz and JD Vance, airing at 9 p.m. Eastern.
